[nfbmi-talk] March 26th Braille Literacy and Coin Unveiling Festivities

[Mary Ann Rojek]

    Hello everyone,

On March 26th, an event to promote Braille Literacy and to unveil the commemorative Braille coin will be held    at the state capitol rotunda in Lansing at 10:30 AM.  The Lansing chapter is organizing and hosting the event. Efforts are being made to obtain a  Gubernatorial proclamation and I'm very pleased to report that Kathleen Straus from the State Board of Education will speak about the need for Braille Literacy.

Participants will gather at the capitol at 10:00; and we would like  representatives from the other chapters and as many locations in the state as possible to attend.

Please come to Lansing and be a part of this exciting, important history making event.  I'm looking forward to seeing you there!

Sincerely,

Mary Ann Rojek
State Braille Coin Project Coordinator
